Ever wondered what Norwich was really like hundreds of years ago? Join us on the river uncovering this city's rich history. From uprisings to invasions, witches to monks; travel through time with us along the river Wensum whilst taking in the stunning views of the city and learning about any wildlife and nature that we pass.
From the launch point at Foundry Bridge, Riverside, opposite Norwich Train Station, the Norwich guided trail gives a unique perspective to a city with over 1000 years of history, built for it's strategic location on the banks of the river.
This is a return trail lasting approximately 2½ hours.
